I wouldn't be surprised if they just change it to the top 12 ranked teams. I know that's what Sanky was angling for initially, but with the demise of the Pac-12 and the top end of the Big 12 I could see it becoming a reality.
I hope not. Give the G5 a chance to send their top ranked champ. Its not fair to put in 9-3 teams that were the 3rd or 4th best team in their own conference and leave out a 12-1 G5 champ.

You have the “they should’ve scheduled tougher teams OoC” argument, but those tougher opponents rarely would agree to a home-and-home with a G5 school, so they’re always at a disadvantage if they try to schedule high profile games OoC since it’ll almost always be road games with no return game

They are more than welcome if they are ranked in the top 12. I see no reason to force them into a position, but I am okay with sending them if they are really worthy of a top 12 position. Which means, essentially, if they are undefeated they can be in. If they lose a game, they are out. I think that's pretty fair for the level of competition that most of them play against.

I’m fine with the highest ranked G5 being in the playoff but that’s about it… everyone who begins to earn it in a G5 conference wants out.
